If you just want to see if it goes bang, pull the bullet, dump the powder, load in chamber, point muzzle in a safe direction and if you want real quite, wrap a towel around the muzzle. Not very loud even without a towel.
If you have never pulled a bullet, just grab the nose of the bullet with a pair of pliers (needle nose works good) and hold the case in your with your fingers while wiggling the nose back and forth with the pliers. Bullet will usually comes out quickly.
This only applies to .22 rimfire.
